He Kāwanatanga Hou: He Pakanga Hou

E te iwi Māori, karawhiti tauā!

Kua mana te Kāwanatanga hou, me te aha, te hanga nei, ko te iwi Māori hei kai mā ōna matā.


Kua whakawahia a Kiritopa Luxon hei pirimia mō Niutīreni, ko Winston Peters hei pirimia tuarua mō te haurua tuatahi o tēnei huringa pōti, kātahi ka tukua te tūranga ki a David Seymour, te rangatira o te pāti Act.


Hei tā Annette Sykes, "he taniwha tēnei e toru ōna upoko". Hei tā Tuku Morgan, "ko ngā kiōre kāpō e toru." Ahakoa he aha te ingoa ka utaina ki runga ki a rātou, e mārama ana te kite, ko te tāmi i te iwi Māori tōna matua.


Te Aka Whai Ora, Co-Governance, Wāri Māori, Te Reo Māori, Tikanga Māori, Te Tiriti o Waitangi, o tātou whānau kēnge, Mātauranga Māori, Auahi Kore Aotearoa me te huhua noa atu, kua oatitia e tēnei kāwanatanga ka turakina e ia hei ngā marama, me ngā tau e tū mai nei.


E mea ana a David Seymour, he kēhua no Ngāpuhi tonu, ko tāna e whai nei ko te mana-ōritetanga o te katoa. Kia kaua tētahi iwi (Māori) e whai ture motuhake, engari, kia ōrite te mana o tēnā, o tēnā.



Kua whai wāhi atu a Tama Potaka, uri o Mōkai Pātea, Taranaki, Whanganui me Ngāti Toa ki te kāhui kapinēti.


Ka whakawhiwhia ki a ia te tūranga Minita Take Taiao, Minita mō Te Arawhiti, Minita Whanaketanga Māori, Minita Take Whare Tuarua anō hoki. He pīkautanga nui mā te tāhae kua poto iho i te rua tau e mahi ana hei kaitōrangapū.


Hei tāna, ka whai hua tonu te Māori i raro i ngā whakahaere a tēnei kāwanatanga. Ki te ora te ohanga, ka ora te Māori. Hei tāna anō, mā te whakamoe i a Te Aka Whai Ora, ka heke tika atu ngā rauemi e tika ana ki ngā ratonga Māori kei te mātotorutanga o ngā hapori e mahi ana.


Karekau ia e whakaae ki ngā anipā a te iwi Māori, arā, e aro ana tōna kāwana ki te tāmi i tōna iwi Māori.


Hei hoa hāere mōna ko te tautōhito Tararā o Te Aupouri, kō Shane Jones. Kua riro anō i a ia te pōtae Minita Whakawhanake I Ngā Rohe, te Minita i ngā Take Moana, te Minita take Rauemi, ko ia hoki te minita tuarua i ngā take pūtea.


He rangatira ārero pounamu a Shane Jones i te ao Māori, i whāngaia ki ngā kai mārō a ōna pākeke. He kaiporotū i ōna wā, i pakanga mō te mana o te reo Māori, mō te Tiriti o Waitangi anō hoki.


Heoi anō, te hanga nei e noho ana ia hei taituarā mō ngā kaupapa here a Winitana. He tohunga rāua tahi ki tēnei ao tōrangapū, nō reira, hei ngā marama tata nei tātou ka kite i te hua o ā rāua rautaki tāmi i te iwi Māori. Ko te kōrero kei runga, ko te rahurahu kei raro.


Ko Shane Reti hei Minita Hauora, hei Minita hoki mō ngā take o Te Moana Nui a Kiwa.


Ko Karen Chhour nō te pāti Act te Minita Take Tamariki. Māna a Oranga Tamariki e tiaki. He wahine tēnei i whakapakekehia i roto i te kupenga a te Kāwanatanga.


Heoi anō, e whai ana tōna pāti ki te whakakore i te wāhanga 7AA o Te Ture Oranga Tamariki, e whakahau ana i a ia kia whakamanahia ngā mātāpono o Te Tiriti o Waitangi, kia tuarihia te mana whakahaere ki ngā iwi.


Ko Te Hokowhitu a Te Pāti Māori, ko Willie Jackson me tōna kāhui o Reipa, ko Marama Davidson me tōna tira Kākāriki anō hoki hei hoa kakari mō te Kāwanatanga nei.

Nō reira tīkina te kānga pako. Kaore e kore ka tutū te pūehu!


Heoi anō, me karawhiti hoki te iwi Māori. Kaua e noho puku. Kaua e mate wheke. Kaua e waiho mā tētahi atu ngā kaupapa e tohe. E ora ai te reo, kōrerotia. E ora ai ngā tikanga, whakapūmauhia. Kaua mā te waewae tutuki, engari mā te ūpoko pakaru.


Karawhiti Tauā!

Kua whiowhio ngā hau ā Tāwhirimātea kia māhea ai te kitea o Ngāitāua e pou ana i ā tāua kara motuhake mai i Te Rerenga Wairua ki te Puka ā Māui.
